Battery Packs</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Bill - I have a couple of Fromeco packs that are more than 2
years old <BR>and still are going fine. I know that the lithium batteries
degrade <BR>with time but it is a slow loss in capacity and probably a rise in
<BR>internal resistance rather than a catastrophic failure with loss of all
<BR>power. I am keeping a close eye on mine and will toss them when I
<BR>notice a significant loss in capacity. Mine are in sport planes but to
<BR>be honest, I would probably just replace them if they were in my pattern
<BR>plane if they already gave me 2 years of good service. Just cheap
<BR>insurance.<BR><BR>Chris<BR><BR>Bill Pritchett wrote:<BR>> Guys
-<BR>> Is there a life span for these packs? I have some NMP 7.4v 2000mah

Thanks,<BR>> Bill<BR>> Bill Pritchett<BR>> 765-744-9322<BR>>
